Chapter 1214

Although everyone was holding up their phones, the dim light made it hard to see clearly in the darkness. Vermont skillfully blended into the crowd with Felicity alongside him. It was the weekend, and the people in Greenwood Grove were supposed to be having a relaxing evening. However, they could not binge-watch their favorite shows or play any video games due to the power outage. The residents were annoyed and gathered in front of their homes to engage in lively chatter. Vermont whispered a few words in Felicity's ear, and she immediately said, "Hugo, why are you out here?" As soon as she finished speaking, another female voice said, "Hugo! Who said you could come out? Where are you, you rascal?" Vermont grabbed Felicity's hand and led her toward the source of the voice. The woman continued calling Hugo's name, searching outside and inside the building until she finally found him in one of the rooms. Infuriated, she scolded the child for not listening to her and wandering around.
